Since 1994, the professional electricians at Mr. Electric have been serving residential and commercial customers throughout the US and Canada. We get it right the first time, delivering the most comprehensive electrical services including installation, upgrade, and repair solutions available.

"Mr. Electric provided excellent service for me under difficult circumstances. A building contractor damaged a wire and buried it under 42” of concrete. Ryan Corley, Mr. Electric’s wire detection specialist, was able to locate the wire accurately. Electricians Jeff Shipkosky and Khefren Johnson spent two and a half very long days, in 93-degree heat, digging around the perimeter of my house. Both ends of the damaged wire were eventually located six feet underground, which is considerable deeper than code requires. Justin David, Mr. Electric’s manager, was here working alongside his men and provided all the support possible to them. He maintained full contact and communication with me throughout the entire process. These men, along with a crew of assistants, are a class act company. I was very impressed at the dedication of Mr. Electric and recommend them highly."

A&J Electric offers a wide variety of services to take care of all of your electrical needs. We are equipped to handle any electrical job, big or small, and employ highly trained, high-quality technicians. Whether you need an outlet replaced or your whole home rewired, we've got you covered.

"The electrical work went well. It was the mess left in my yard that I have a problem with. Also did not caulk around the conduit allowing space for rodents to get in. I have reached out to them several times and have not received a response. They came out as scheduled but it had been raining and they brought out a oversized machine to dig the trench and left my yard a horrible mess. Being new to the neighborhood and not receiving any help from A & J electric I did my best to repair the damage myself and requested compensation to recoup some of the money it cost me and I have been ignored and left hanging with a huge mess. I would not recommend this company unless you can afford to clean up after them."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Upgrading electrical systems in Akron can significantly enhance your home’s value and resale appeal, especially with panel upgrades, modern wiring, and energy-efficient features. Buyers look for homes that meet current electrical safety standards and support today’s technology. Improvements like smart home features, generator hookups, and updated panels are attractive in Akron’s market and may be required for certain types of financing.

Helpful?

Akron’s cold winters and frequent ice storms can delay outdoor electrical work, so schedule major projects for spring or fall. Many homes in the area have aging electrical systems or unique wiring challenges, especially in historic neighborhoods. Local codes require GFCI and AFCI protection in certain rooms. Consider energy efficiency incentives and remember to factor in sales tax on materials when budgeting.

Helpful?

Before starting electrical work in Akron, confirm your contractor’s credentials and ensure all required permits are obtained, as processing can take up to two weeks. Schedule necessary inspections early, and check if your project requires coordination with local utilities for major upgrades. For older homes, inspect for outdated wiring or hazardous materials, and plan around Akron’s winter weather to prevent outdoor project delays.

Helpful?

In Akron, you’ll find residential electrical contractors who handle home rewiring, panel upgrades, and smart home system installations, as well as specialists in lighting design and electrical safety. Commercial contractors focus on offices, retail spaces, and industrial facilities. Some professionals offer expertise in generator hookups, solar panel installation, EV charging stations, and emergency repairs, especially for Akron’s older or historic homes.

Helpful?

For Akron’s climate, use outdoor-rated conduit, cold-resistant cables, and moisture-resistant supplies for basements or damp areas. Copper wiring is ideal for reliability, especially in older homes. Install GFCI and AFCI breakers that meet OH code for electrical safety, and choose LED fixtures for energy efficiency. Smart switches and updated outlets can also improve convenience and support modern technology needs.
